Tot School: Letter E & Color Purple

    After taking a week off from tot school at home, we were back at it this week. Connor was very much into learning this week and even asked to do tot school a couple times. This week we focused on the Letter E and the Color Purple. I haven't been really good at doing it in the past, but each day I tried to focus on a theme. Some Letter E foods that we ate this week were eggs, enchiladas, and edimame. Some toys we played with were play eggs, toy elephant, googly eyes, and envelopes (I put a lot of the activity pieces in them for Connor to take out). 

Tot School: Letter D & Color Brown

   This week was all about the Letter D and color brown! We had fun playing with dinosaurs, our dogs, dominoes, and dice. We also ate our fair share of donuts and dots.

Tot School: Letter C & Color Pink

     This marks our third week doing tot school at home, and Connor and I are both enjoying it. Since Connor started preschool this week, we had to fit it in after nap time on a couple of days. This week we focused on the Letter C and color pink. Our snacks for the week included clementines, cantaloupe, cupcakes, cheese, and crackers. Some objects/toys that we played with were cars, candles, cotton balls, and crayons.

Tot School: Letter B & Color Blue

    I am a proud momma because we have had a successful second week of tot school. It was a busier week for us because we did more running around in the mornings, but we still made it work. We even got a call from the learning center on post that a slot had opened up for Connor to start his part time toddler preschool. He is going to start on Monday and go three days a week for three hours. Not too long, but it will give him some socialization and structure. I am going to continue to do tot school at home as well, but just move it later in the day after nap time.  

      This week Connor learned about the Letter B and the color blue. We had a lot of stuff to play with {balls, blocks, balloons, beans, bow tie pasta, band-aids} and snacks to eat {blueberries, bananas, blueberry muffins, bones- pretzels with marshmallows on each side dipped in white chocolate, and bandaids- crackers with cream cheese in the middle and red jelly on top}. It was a fun week, especially for Connor since his favorite color is blue.

Tot School: Letter A & Color Red

   Yay for it being Friday! I am really looking forward to this weekend. We are going on a hike to 52 tunnels tomorrow. I'm really excited and nervous, but I'll save that for another post. We have had a fun first week of tot school over here. Connor is on the wait list for part time toddler day care,  but I wanted to do some teaching with him in the mean time. I decided to start spending about 30 minutes every morning doing age appropriate lessons with him {i.e. the pajamas and messy bed head in every picture}. Some last longer depending how interested he is. Nothing hard, just fun and a way to get his little mind active by learning new things. This week we learned all about the Letter A and the color red.
